What owners wrote
Engine --while driving (usually at speeds between 25 and 40 MPH) and usually while turning the vehicle either right or left the engine will completly shut itself off. The warning lights kick on and the engine kicks off. On occasion, while parked or going into reverse the engine will do the exact same thing. I have noticed that while parked the rpm's seem to increase greatly before the vehicle shuts down.
Vehicle revs up when idling, at a stop sign it wants to keep going forward. And after only 3 1/2 years of driving it, my engine needs to be replaced.
